I think I actually would since I would know it's not the Brown family running things. Better than rooting for Cleveland, Pittsburgh, or Indianapolis IMO.

Excellent question!

For me, it would depend on a few factors: where they were moved to (for example, if it's Los Angeles, I would probably switch teams) and if they changed their team name (just changing it wouldn't necessarily be enough, but if it's something stupid like the "Steelers" or some other nonsensical name, then, yeah, I'm switching teams). Most likely, though, I'd probably switch to following the local team since I would be able to watch them on TV every week and the local radio shows would talk about them daily.
